Geelong vs. North Melbourne

[BALKAN]

Can someone explain to me, citing the rules, why that wasn't a free kick? He was in his back, regardless of Lindsay stopping.

 

[Hawkers]

Drop of the knees from Thomas. Every ******* time.

Shrug of the shoulders from Selwood. Every time

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Daw has no idea.

 

[yakka man]

Oh Thomas. Jerk

 

[kane249]

Should have shoved it down his throat.

Thomas would have dived and got 50

"That's a free kick." - Tom Harley, during every Geelong game ever.

Geezus north look bad.

Geelong are olaying well and deserve credit, but north just aren't putting up any resistance.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

This game is a freekick fest, makes it bad to watch.

Was one of the best non decisions I've seen. Great umpiring. Not only stopped so the player ran into him, but folded himself into a ball to ensure he got it in the back.

Paying ticky-touchwood high contact frees but Thomas gets murdered in the back and gets nothing. Umpires, you've got it backwards!

Stokes swats Daw off the ball like a mosquito LOL

Daw has no idea.

Clueless

 

[SuperSub17]

Ch7 commentators have no idea. No way was that a free to Thomas.

Lol North. Front running down hill skiers

Don't know how that's relevant to my comment but ok.

 

[Damon_3388]

I don't think Lindsay Thomas plays for the free kick often enough...

 

[Hawkers]

Explain how it's different from any other player drawing a free (ie Selwood shrugging shoulders)

 

[Hayes4PM]

Hahaha, oh wow. Umps

 

[Lord Eddard]

Daw seriously lacks footy smarts

 

[Atley]

I hate norf but the umps are playing for Geelong

 

[Hawkers]

Don't know how that's relevant to my comment but ok.

Just highlighting that there are many ways to draw a free kick but only 1 player gets them

 

[Plugger35]

Starting to wish I tipped the Cats by more than 11 points.

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Petrie needs to at least pretend he cares.

Well they have beaten Freo and Sydney away.
